Thank you for recalling this first Votive Mass "ad diversa" from the Missal.I have no English either, but why not use the Latin, even in private prayer?It would be difficult to phrase this intention in a more elegant and concise way.This reminds me of Pope Pius XII (though not a Latinist himself) who is reported to have said (can't find the source this evening): lingua Latina verba non enuntiat, sed sculpit.

One misprint: read "placitus", non "placitas".

Fixed it! Thank you.

I agree with what you say about praying in Latin.
